Live Strong in the Wilderness

I wonder which potion is more effective, this one, or the system’s potion?

After Xu Yi received the potion, he emerged from the escape pod.

Then, the Spirit Race took away the escape pod, including the corpse of the Maro person Xu Yi had killed.

"Xu Yi, what is that potion you have?" Lu Ke asked curiously. After all, Xu Yi hadn’t taken anything else except for some potions.

"It’s the same as the potion we use to enhance spiritual power; it’s given to the Maro by the Divine Race. Let’s go back first and then gather everyone for a meeting. Including the 20 I have, there are 80 in total, which will enhance everyone’s strength," Xu Yi said happily, then flew towards the Mountain Gate of Yimen.

Lu Yao and the others were cultivating inside the Mountain Gate.

So, Xu Yi held a meeting and presented the 80 potions.

Due to the system, Xu Yi was certain that these potions had no issues.

Therefore, he didn’t need to wait for feedback from the Spirit Race and could use them directly.

"Today, an escape pod from the Maro civilization landed on our Yimen Continent. This Maro civilization is a loyal henchman of the Divine Race and tracked the Spirit Race here, but were ambushed by the Spirit Race a light-year away."

"This incident shows that the enemies we face may not only be the Jialan civilization but other civilizations as well. So, everyone must cultivate near the Star Gate and retreat at the first sign of trouble. The Star Gate is recoverable; I’ve already given you permissions."

After transporting from Yimen Continent to Base Alpha on Spirit Blue Star, they could choose to recover the Star Gate on Yimen Continent, Spiritual Star.

If necessary, humans could retreat back to Earth Star, and then recover all the Star Gates.

But by doing so, humans would lose the opportunity to re-enter Spirit Blue Star.

Unless, someone stays behind and stores the Main Star Gate in their Storage Space and hides away.

If they hide back on Earth’s Star, without the Star Gate, it would be difficult for any civilization to find humans.

But, once humans and the Spirit Race retreat to Earth Star, recovering would be very difficult!

After all, Earth Star has no spiritual energy.

Xu Yi thought, if he were the Divine Race, he would focus on planets with spiritual energy.

As long as there is spiritual energy, Divine Masters will be nurtured.

This is an unsolvable problem.

"Xu Yi, can the rest of the Maro civilization’s warships track the location again because their warships were destroyed?" Lu Yao asked worriedly. She felt that a powerful civilization should know whether their warships were safe and where they had troubles.

If something happened, it’s impossible not to investigate, right?

If a large number of Maro civilization people show up, can the Spirit Race handle it?

Moreover, will the Divine Race appear?

The Spirit Race might handle the Maro civilization, but they definitely can’t handle the Divine Race.

Even their home planet can’t resist, so how can the current few Spirit Race resist the Divine Race?

Thus, the appearance of the Divine Race means the Spirit Race will be completely extinct.

The entire planet’s power was used to let this one million Spirit Race escape. Can this one million Spirit Race help another Spirit Race escape?

"Additionally, the Spirit Race is also hiding some things from us, such as all of their strength and some of their deployments. Of course, this is understandable. After all, we humans are too weak, and there’s no need to explain everything to us," Wang Jin said from the side.

"Yes, weak as we are, we have no means of resistance. Fortunately, the Divine Race is not a destructive civilization; they are more about enslaving other civilizations. If we succumb, humanity will not be completely extinct," Zhou Chun said weakly, noting that a level 30-plus Divine Master is really not something humans can contend with.

"If enslaved, do we still have hope?" Xu Yi retorted.

Being enslaved offers no chance at all.

In that case, it’s utterly hopeless, with not even a sliver of a chance to recover.

After all, there’s no chance for humans to flee.

"Alright, everyone should enhance their strength first. Only when we become stronger can we hope for a counterattack. Otherwise, everything is futile," Xu Yi said, quieting everyone. He then took out 60 potions acquired from the Maro and decided to hold off on using the 20 given by the system for now.

Eleven people, each taking five potions, to see how much they can enhance.

So, everyone took their potions and began finding places to inject and enhance.

Staying too close would interfere with each other, so they had to keep some distance.

"Lu Ke, why don’t you try one and see if you can break through to level 15?" Xu Yi said and handed one to Lu Ke.

Without hesitation, Lu Ke accepted the potion from Xu Yi and went to find a place to use it.

These potions had no effect on Xu Yi.

Their effectiveness was at most at the level of an Intermediate Potion.

It might not even allow Lu Ke to break through to level 15.

Just as Xu Yi predicted, Lu Ke returned after about ten minutes.

"Xu Yi, I wasted a potion; its effect is not as good as the ones you previously brought out," Lu Ke said with some guilt, knowing that the potion could be useful to others.

"No worries, it’s just one potion, don’t feel bad. If it worked, it would be a bonus for us," Xu Yi smiled. Even if it were ten potions, Xu Yi wouldn’t feel regretful.

If she could reach level 15, Xu Yi could confidently enter Jialan Star to gather information.

Lu Ke nodded and said nothing more, waiting for the results.

Soon, Lu Yao appeared.

"Level 14, still far from the peak, and there’s one potion left; this only got me this far," Lu Yao said, handing the last potion to Xu Yi.

Xu Yi took it, then gave Lu Yao one crafted by the system.

"Use it directly to see if you can reach level 14 peak."

After hearing Xu Yi’s words, Lu Yao didn’t hesitate and injected the potion into herself, starting to absorb the medicinal power madly.

After half an hour, Lu Yao successfully broke through to level 14 peak.

Next were the remaining Yimen executives.

All were at level 14 peak, just a hair away from level 15.

However, when one might breakthrough is unknown.

Unless there’s an Advanced Spiritual Power Enhancement Potion.

Unfortunately, Xu Yi himself didn’t have it, thus couldn’t provide it for others.

For Xu Yi, having so many people reach level 14 peak increased their chances against the Jialan civilization.

In addition, Xu Yi still had enough on hand to let five more people reach level 14 peak. The Spirit Race should have about ten.

With this, holding the first line of defense should not be a problem.

Currently, as long as the Maro don’t expose their current location and attract the Divine Race, there shouldn’t be significant issues.

Now, humanity needs time, and so does the Spirit Race.

Xu Yi believed that within a few decades, humans and the Spirit Race would become quite powerful.

Maybe they could build enough giant warships to provide a refuge for human and Spirit Race escape.

Dreaming of defeating the Divine Race within a century is pure folly.

If the Divine Race were that easy to defeat, they wouldn’t be the Divine Race, nor subjugate countless races.

Thinking they could defeat the Divine Race so quickly, maybe only the Pan Race could step up.

But, can the Pan Race be found?

If found, would the Pan Race definitely go to war with the Divine Race?
